Summer 2016 Summary

This summer has been packed full of fun events and of course John Deere tractors! We started the summer off with a bang, at the Eastern National Expo IX 2016. What a show! There was green and yellow everywhere you looked. Fun activities happening all weekend. It was fun to connect with fellow John Deere enthusiasts and talk tractors and equipment. People from all over came to the show to check out the displays. Plenty of pictures were taken, check them out on here, or on our Facebook page.

Then we had the 9th annual Garrettsville, OH tractor parade during their Summerfest. It's the worlds longest tractor parade. What a collection of various equipment pieces, all different years, colors, types, and sizes. What a sight to see! Enjoy photos of this in our photo album on here or on Facebook.

Some of our members pulled at the Mantua, OH OX Roast during their antique tractor pulls, and club president Fred Bissell even took home a 3rd place trophy!

We have many events planned for Fall of 2016. Make sure your checking here, and on Facebook for updates and event details.
